So, we survived Irma. It could have been worse but with God’s grace it wasn’t. We are grateful and blessed. Down trees, some leak, luckily we never lost power or the internet but cell phone communication misbehaved. My house looks like a zoo. Cleaning up has been a production just like setting up. Taking everything from inside back outside and after being outside chopping off the trees, didn’t realize we had that many, and cleaning the backyard, breaking a sweat took on a whole other meaning, free cardio. Now, back to regularly scheduled program!

The Art Atop The Mountain

I mean, if there is one thing I did not expect to find tucked a top of the Alpes in France, is a Buddhist center, Shedrub Choekhor Ling Monastere & Centre Bouddhistes Tibetains Mont Saleve but there it was, quietly and yet, magnetically providing us with one of the most amazing views of Geneva. You hardly see a soul, aka the residents, besides the regular tourists strolling by on their way to the peek, and stopping for a casual beverage and a culinary menu to die for and the employees but what caught my eyes the most, besides the calmness irradiating thorough, is the art surrounding the building; modern and yet effective. It is Art!
